2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup baking cocoa
1 3/4 cups very hot water

1. Heat oven to 350ºF.
2. Mix flour, sugar, 2 tablespoons cocoa, the baking powder and salt in ungreased square pan, 9x9x2 inches (I usually use a glass pan). Mix in milk, oil and vanilla with fork until smooth. Spread in pan.
3. Sprinkle brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa over batter. Pour water over batter.
4. Bake about 40 minutes or until top is dry.
5. Spoon warm cake into dessert dishes. Top with ice cream. Spoon sauce from pan onto each serving.

Love it with vanilla ice cream. Yummy!

That recipe sounds yummy!

Seeing that I'm in Australia, and we have just started Autumn, I'll tell you what my fav thing to do in Autumn is! To walk and fun and roll in the crisp piles of fallen leaves. If I see leaves on the footpath or even in the gutter I will always deteor to make sure I can swish my way through them!
